Girls A-Z pick your favorite

[ashthedreamer]

I like:

Alouette (LOVE! Allie, Lou, Lulu, Etta, etc. are adorable nns, too)
Bridget (didn't really love any "B" names, though)
Cordelia (love!)
Davina
Eliora (it was a toss-up between this and Edith/Eden nn Edie)
Freya (again, didn't really love any "F" names)
Giulia
Hana
Ingrid (although I vastly prefer Astrid)
Jessenia
Keena (I think I prefer Kina, but I do like both spellings)
Leela (although I just prefer the Leila spelling, with the Lee-lah pronunciation, which I've heard is legitimate)
Mireille (I was tied between this and Maren, so I just picked the lovely French Mireille--I love it! I do prefer Mirabelle to Mireille, though...)
Nara (prefer Norah and Nadia, though)
Ophelia
Paloma
Ramona
Sabella (although I prefer Isabella and Sybella)
Theodora (love the nn Teddy for a girl!)
Viola (although I prefer Violet and Violetta)
Wren
Xanthe (LOVE Xanthe lately!)
Yara (although I prefer Zara)
Zenaida (zen-AY-dah? zen-EYE-dah?)

Good luck!

Alessi: Alessia sounds more complete, but this is still pretty.
Bridget: Irish and spunky. I've always liked it.
Christiana: Interesting variation on the beautiful name Christina.
Devany: I've never heard this before. I think I like it.
Eden: One trendy name that I actually like.
Freya: Pretty. I also like the spelling Freja.
Giulia: I think this name is beautiful spelled with a G or a J, and Giuly looks so cute as a nickname!
Hana: I prefer Hannah or Hanna, but this one is okay.
Ingrid: A nice, underused name.
Jae: I prefer it as a nickname, but I didn't like any of the others.
Keely: Trendy but alright. I would have chosen Katalina but the K spelling ruins it for me.
Leila: Not a big fan, but I like it better than the others. This spelling is much better than Layla.
Maren: Eh, it's okay.
Nara: Also just okay.
Ophelia: Love this name. Love the femininity, the literary reference, just everything.
Paloma: I like it better than the others.
Ramona: Cute and underused.
Sabina: Reminds me of a favorite book (The Unbearable Lightness of Being so I like it.
Taryn: Nice twist on Tara, which I've always liked
Vienna: My future cat's name I love it because of the Billy Joel song and because I love the names of places.
Wren: Not a fan, but it's prettier than the others.
Xanthe: Meh.
Yeardley: I feel like I shouldn't like this name, but I think I do.
Zarina: Feminine and interesting.
